Escaping The Alt Right


Listen Later

Escaping the Alt Right is a fictionalized conversation based on my true story. Everyone wishes they could talk to their teenage self and set them straight, but what if your teenage self was part of one of the earliest waves of modern Facism? In this conversation between past and present, we will look at what recovering from dangerous ideals really looks like, and while this may begin as an interview it quickly becomes an interrogation of both sides. Together we will look at how we can bridge the ideological divide which defines our modern political landscape. Please be aware that difficult subject matter relating to forms of bigotry will be brought up, I caution you to exercise your own caution in listening. Please remember that your mental health is more important than any piece of media, so if needed please be kind to yourself.
